George Strait - Come On Joe lyrics

Well, it's a long, hot night And the stars are shining kinda extra bright Sitting on the back porch glidin' Whetting my appetite Well, I'm a six-pack high And start missing the light of my baby's eyes Wasn't it beautiful, the kind of a soul they said would never die Well, it's muggy in the shack And the backwoods are black 'Cause the clouds hid the moon away The light from my cigarette flickers in the dark The only way she knows I'm here Then suddenly the sounds of the fiddles and accordions Sweetly begin to play and I can almost hear her sweet voice say Chorus: Come on Joe, just count to ten Pull yourself together again And come on Joe, you gotta get hold of this mood you're in Come on Joe, you gotta be strong You're still young and life goes on to carry on 'Til we're together again Hey, I know she's right But it's hard to fight when you're hurtin' so I tried to walk out of that door before but I just can't go With the tears and the laughter in every rafter in every room Wasn't it beautiful Wasn't it the kind of happiness and glow Chorus Come on Joe Hey, come on Joe To carry on 'til we're together again
